Default Handle the wind

I am looking for input as to the next plane to get. I get wind here that will go 20 - 25mph. Is there a rule to apply with regards to size / engine etc. as far as handling that type of wind? I understand that gusts change everything, also. I was thinking of a 4*60, but I could be convinced otherwise with the correct inputs. I would eventually like to get into scale WWII aircraft, my understanding is that they require a different sort of finesse to fly. ( Been doing it on the simulator for a while).
